• Newsom signed a lot of bills into law. Which mean the most to the Sacramento region? (abridged.org) — New state laws and vetoes could change how homelessness is coordinated across Sacramento County, including Rancho Cordova, by requiring a new regional agency and reshaping services. Other measures affect daycare options in state offices, community college bachelor’s degrees, wildfire resilience, fireworks safety, and levee funding, all with potential ripple effects for local workers, families, and homeowners.
